The Gipper 4,282 Report post Posted February 7 While I thought we could use a veteran presence at LB.....at DB I suspect the Browns may go hard after young talent with their 9 draft picks rather than go for a veteran like Sherman. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
calfoxwc 4,287 Report post Posted February 7 great big NO. Sherman is very talented, but is? still a head case. Really not a fit for the Browns locker room. He's a distraction, too expensive. Nope. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gumby73 2,002 Report post Posted February 7 Sherman will turn age 33, about the same time the FA window opens.. And...we don't need, coin flipping headcases that lie to fire up our sidelines pregame.. We need more Baker's that knew he did shake his hand... solid pass! but, The new Jets HC may not?

Tour2ma 5,255 Report post Posted February 7 22 hours ago, Dutch Oven said: Not sure how much gas he has left in the tank. Agree, but unlike the other replies I would not pass without bringing him in for a visit, a physical, etc. If healthy, then I see the potential to mix a great vet into a young CB corp... a spot starter at CB... a sometime box Safety... and a vocal leader on the D-side where none has emerged to date. Head case? A laughable label... https://www.nbcsports.com/bayarea/49ers/why-george-kittle-strives-be-49ers-teammate-richard-sherman Quote And yet it's Sherman who Kittle looks up to every single day at 49ers practice. Even though Sherman plays on the other side of the ball, Kittle is watching his every move. "His work ethic every single snap. Every snap for him is a Super Bowl rep," Kittle said in an interview with NBC Sports' Peter King. "He's not gonna let anyone beat him on any single rep. His mindset is always that I'm the best and nobody can beat me." Kittle believes the way Sherman handles his business has a domino effect on the entire 49ers team. https://www.cnbc.com/2020/01/30/why-richard-sherman-turned-down-millions-to-play-for-the-49ers.html https://www.ninersnation.com/2019/11/26/20983356/san-francisco-49ers-richard-sherman-support-leader Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unsympathetic 662 Report post Posted February 8 As with all players, the question isn't if he'd come, the question is.. at what price. 2M? Sure, we're probably paying more to a priority UDFA. 8M? Hard, hard pass. Yes, i'm sure it's true that Watching Bitonio Work Each Day is good for Wills' career.. but given that Wills is a professional in his own right with an NFL-level position coach, how much of his development is directly attributable only to Bitonio? Same thing for Sherman.. It's fun to watch him execute the rep ahead of you, but Sherman isn't going to make up for bad picks or bad defensive schemes. It's not Sherman that "develops" the player, it's the player and the position coach putting in the hours when nobody else is around. Every time you hear someone say XYZ will Change The Character... OK, great.. in exactly what way and by how much? And when you can't measure it.. It didn't happen. And to be clear: Something may be observed.. but it's simply not correct to conclude that only one thing [Sherman joining] was the single reason for it. TB won the super bowl. But Bucs had been stacked for years and only lacked QB. Also, the Pats don't need a character change just because they didn't win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unsympathetic 662 Report post Posted February 9 No. This is "conventional wisdom" BS that actually means nothing. 1) It's not Sherman that "develops" the player, it's the player and the position coach who put in the hours when nobody else is around. Without googling, name one trait that Wills developed this past season only because he was "being groomed" by Bitonio.. and not because of Wills' individual work outside of practice. Show proof. 2) Sherman has said he wants to play 3 more in SF and retire and so this entire thread is really much ado about nothing. 3) His contract was 14M last season and he's only a 67.7 rating. You know, no better than Money Mitch. Niners DB saw a comeback POY year from Verrett [he'd win that award in any other year than Smith's return from injury] and another great one from Kwaun Williams.. Sherman's no longer either elite or a plus D contributor. If he's only asking Mitch's salary level, great! But beware.. Mitch was paid 3.7 last year, and we may not be able to replicate that. Kevin Johnson was a decent-player-injury-recovery flier that didn't work.. one of the things with secondaries these days is that we have to get lucky with draft picks [TB with Dean drafted in rd3 becoming a top80 overall player] or injury [SF with Verrett] to be great. Sherman's declining athleticism and his body injured all of 2020 is.. not the type of FA deal we should be leaping into. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Great post, this is exactly why he should be a "no" at all costs for the short-term. The browns need defensive help, and I absolutely like the idea of getting solid veteran guys. Sherman ain't it, though. On the edge and in the secondary we need to get faster and more agile. Richard isn't either of those. Now, if he doesn't get scooped up in the early FA market and we don't see development or recovery? Maybe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
